Grrr...
The word "disc."
Why do we use that instead of "disk?"
Seriously!

technically it derives from the latin 'discus'--spelled with a 'c'. so maybe the 'disk' version should really be the problematic one...
ReplyDeleteamelia: If we lived in the Holy Roman Empire, you might have a compelling point.
ReplyDeleteThe American spelling of the word is "disk." "Disc" is the British spelling. The computer industry uses "disc" for optical media and "disk" for magnetic media. Dumb. Kodak used "disc" for their ill-fated film format. Dumb as the format.
